I think thats my old bass. I sold it about 4 years ago in CT. I dont know about you, but I would get feedback big time on the 5th fret E string to the point I could not control it. But what a sound! you play it well.
get a job. cut your hair. join the marines. eat a wheel of cheese. get old. become divorced. watch retro clips on youtube. eat a bar of soap. argue and threaten people anonymously on youtube. get a job.
You did a lovely job on that piece.....a truly perfect rendition that actually makes the whole thing sound better. Pursue your talent! Also, be careful to preserve that instrument, which is quite fine.
I'm sorry, but bass is not more difficult. anyone could learn how to play bass faster than they could learn guitar. guitar is simply more complex on many levels. not just because there's more strings. anyone knows that. by the way, the vid is awesome. love it.
It's strange to say that one instrument is more difficult to play than another. Each one, even tiny ones like the ukulele have their own challenges to overcome and their own demands. I play both guitar and double bass and I can tell you that I find them both equally tough, but in very different ways.
I have always been an SAC fan and Tomorrow is my favorite. You do a tremendous job with your Vox and I enjoy listening to this particular video very much. I can't help but think that if this arrangement were written and performed today Collective Soul be perfect candidates to record this song.
Thanks alot Ed! You guys are all awesome man~ And awesome arrangements too. I will change the info right away. Thanks very much for your comment. I will upload more SAC songs in the future so check back often.
At the end of the verses (before the bridge) where you play E, D, C...I played double-stops (2-note chords)...not single notes. Thought you'd like to know.
When you play E-D & C at the end of the verses before the bridge...play those as double-stops (2-note chords). That's what I did...makes a fuller sound.
Dude: YOU ROCK!!!

Bass is more difficult to play than guitar, unlike what some people would try to have you believe based on the number of strings.
This dude did a great job with a relatively complicated tune.

Another thing is this song is in a Bossa Nova type rythym which puts much of the emphasis on the bass player.
